Left 4 Dead 2 - Xbox or PC?

Curious what people think on this. I had left 4 dead on 360 for a few months and enjoyed it, although got a bit bored after a while. That said me and the other half did enjoy it, especially a bit of split screen co-op.

My PC isn't bad, but I don't think my 3850 will cut the mustard when it comes to playing the second one.

So I'm debating at the moment where my pre-order will lie. I'd like to get the 360 version for the living room experience, I know the PC will win hands down on community content, but then I'm thinking the chances of finding a group of good players to game with is probably the same on both platforms.

What do you lot think?

PC if it can handle, mod scene is better and DLC is free, but 360 version will possibly be more fun online, both will be good though.

PC no question. I wouldn't worry too much about your graphics card, so long as you've got a good CPU you'll be ok.

Heck even my nVidia 8600M GT plays L4D fine. The Source engine is very scaleable. Again, it really comes down to the question - what will your friends get? You don't want to be on 360 and them on PC and vice versa.

I agree with this post to be honest. Depends on which more of your friends will be getting. Your PC will handle it fine.
